I'm trying to make sense of this histopathology report that mentioned "necrotising epithelioid cell granulomas of myco bacterial etiology." What does that mean exactly? Should I be worried about it? Just looking for some clarity on what this might mean for my health.

I've been dealing with wheezing and a cold since last night. I took azithromycin 500 and a tablet with serratiopeptidase and diclofenac sodium, but now the wheezing has gotten worse. Should I consider taking methylprednisolone to help with the wheezing?

go to near by hospital they will give you injection hydrocortisone or nebulization. never take steriods without a doctor advice

I'm really worried about my condition. I got a chest X-ray and have been dealing with a 98.8-degree fever in the evenings along with an irritated throat and mucus. The Mantoux test came back positive at 1012 mm, but the AFB test was negative. My doctor at the government hospital started me on tuberculosis treatment two months ago. Since then, I've gained about 3 kg. Is this normal? Should I be concerned about anything else?

continue tablets for 4 months more
